A catalogue of paintings by Stefan Hirsch : February twenty-sixth to March nineteenth, 1927 / with an introduction by Stephan Bourgeois
A 1927 exhibition catalogue published by the Bourgeois Galleries in New York, listing paintings by the American artist Stefan Hirsch and introduced by Stephan Bourgeois for gallery visitors. The pictures are precise, flat-lit modernist paintings of harbours, rooftops, factories and a small town, rendered in grey tones with clean geometric forms. A designer might take from them the stacked blocky architecture, hard-edged shadows and simplified skylines of 1920s precisionism.
